We were here on our last night in Carmel and it was the best food we had all week! Nice portions , a bit expensive but normal for the area. Also live music! Will definitely be back next year! Only issue: they kept the door open for a while, even on a windy winter night so it can get drafty.

Eating at Dametra's is like eating at a favorite Uncle's home who makes great Mediterranean food and who brings out his mandolin when you come over. We eat at Dametra's in Carmel every time we travel to the Monterey Peninsula (maybe every couple of years) including last night, Monday December 5, 2016. I had the Seafood Cioppino and my vegetarian...

The food was awesome! I can assure you that you will not walk out of there hungry. We went during lunch right at Noon and had to wait about 15 min for a table but it was well worth the small wait! The service was really really good!!!

We had the gyros and it was amazing! There was a birthday in the house and there was singing and live music that turned into a birthday dance party! Great food, fun atmosphere and the management checked in with us to make sure everything was satisfactory. We will definitely return for lunch or dinner the next time we are in...

The service is always spot on and with a smile! The atmosphere is lively and will put...

Although we arrived relatively late after 8 pm we were warmly welcome by the owner and his staff. The food and wine suggestions were very good and reasonably priced.
The lamb meat is absolutely superior, not to be missed. The music, songs and a little of dance added to a friendly sphere, just the right measure to enjoy and still...

We stopped in for lunch on a busy day and had to wait around 10 minutes for a table; it was worth the wait!!
My husband ordered the gyros, I ordered the kafta kebab; both came with a small greek salad which was excellent. The kafta kebab is a more robust meal than the gyros, so I shared with my...

My wife and I were worried about finding dinner on Thanksgiving Day. Many places were either closed or serving "special" meals. While walking aimlessly we came across Dametra Cafe. As we were debating about entering, a passerby advised us that we would not be disappointed and we certainly were not.
After a short wait, we were seated and our friendly...
